Re: Stones
Any GNR fan who doesn't own Beggar's Banquet, Let It Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and Exile on Main Street should have to turn in their rock badge and papers. Best 4 album run EVER in rock and roll. Tell me why I'm right or why I'm wrong.:cool:
ps...as an addendum to the topic, tell me some of your favorite multiple album runs by an artist. In other words, albums that were released in a row. They don't have to involve the first album. For example, Dylan had a huge three album run with Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisted, and Blonde on Blonde (they were his 5th, 6th, and 7th records). Multiple albums in a row that represent the artist at their absolute best.:thumbup:

Lucky for me those are the 4 albums I own then.:smile:
Exile is clearly the big brother in that collection, with Beggar and Bleed coming in second. Sticky Fingers is alright, but you can clearly a shift in sound from 60s blues rock to more mainstream rock. Not too big a fan of that, but still some great songs.
The Stones are the closest you get to the heart of rock n' roll. What a band.

madagas is right with the four albums, but I'd say you should pick up Beggars or Exile before Sticky Fingers. Sticky fingers is exellent, but I thing Beggars and Exile are the two best Stones albums by quite a stretch.
Re: Stones
I've been on a Sticky kick lately....obviously Gnr was as well because in 2006 they were playing You Gotta Move and Sway-mainly because of Izzy I think. Buckmaster does the strings on that album so that may have something to do with it!:D

Russ, that Floyd run is awesome. Another classic is Unforgettable Fire, Joshua Tree, and Achtung Baby from U2. I didn't count Rattle and Hum because it was not a proper studio album....more of a soundtrack.

Re: Stones
This won't hold much water with you guys I'm sure seeing as though I'm a U2 fan but I'm gonna say
Joshua tree
Rattle and Hum
Achtung baby

was a better 4 album run and much more interesting creatively to be honest. And for the record I do own all 4 of the Stones albums mentioned. Exile being my favorite of the bunch.
